Excerpt from An Inquiry Into the Legislation, Control, and Improvement of the Salmon and Sea Fisheries of Ireland
With reference to the latter question, it is of course to he wished that Irish fishermen were independent of assistance; but whatever is likely to prove of service to them, we may hope will be accorded.
With respect to the first, I may state, that since leaving England I have had much insight into the practical operation of the Law, - during a residence of nine years on the river Slaney, - as well as in the course of experience formed on the bench, - and also as secretary to a Fishery Protection Society, after the passing of the Act of 1842, and as a conservator for the Wexford districts under the recent Act.
Not being an angler, or connected with fisheries, I may claim to be exempt from advocating any particular interest.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an examination of the history and current state of inland and sea fisheries in Ireland, focusing on salmon and sea fishing, and considers the impact of laws that were established to preserve the industry. The author, a fishery conservationist, reveals how misguided and unjust legislation has led to devastating consequences for salmon and sea fisheries. The author's passion for the subject matter shines through as they recount their experience observing the severe negative consequences of the 1842 act, which resulted in the loss of livelihood for many who depended on fishing for sustenance. While the book is a historical account of the legal landscape surrounding Irish fisheries, it also serves as an indictment of laws that failed to consider the balance between industrial requirements and the impact on the environment and its inhabitants. Conservationists, anglers, and policymakers will find this book to be a passionate argument for thoughtful legislation that will protect this important natural resource for generations to come.
